Comments on: Chocolate Lavender Meringue Truffle Cake http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/10/17/chocolate-lavender-meringue-truffle-cake/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

Thankyou so much :) I get more energy with daylight savings. I learnt that the hard way. Well at least my model the Artisan KSM150 doesn't work with 1 egg white so I have to hand beat it. Not so bad as it's just one I suppose! Hi Maria-Yes you’re right, it even sounds nice!

Lavender sugar sounds like such a pretty ingredient.. even just to the ears :) Visually this cake is just spectacular. You never cease to impress me. And I love it that you would bake such things in the evenings too :) Interesting info re: the Kitchenaid being ineffective for one egg white. I don't have a Kitchenaid yet.. but these tips do come in handy! Probably is commonsense.. but knowing me, I'd test the machine with one egg white! I’m yet to try lavender in anything edible.
